      Pretty much on par. The war crimes that Japan committed easily put them on the same tier.

      Japan was more then a fascist state. They embodied Nazism to an exact T.

          WW2 didn’t help, but the influence is older. In the Meiji period government send diplomatic missions to observe various countries in the world and they usually were coming back in awe with the Germany, and since then there is a crapton of german influences in culture and law, which got hidden under the heap of american popshit after WW2 but they are still there and surface every now and then.

    Japan did a really good job when it comes to covering up their war crimes and general atrocities. Their PR team is top notch.
